RH2022: eliminate tiles?

Yes to the first question, probably (?) no to the second.

TOC tiles are tweaked in the layoutDiff.css file of your skin ({project}\publish\skins\{skin_name})

You can also just use the editor of course.

I guess you could force-insert a description with CSS shenanigans ('content' property maybe), but I doubt that'll really work.

You can remove the images and you can resize the box so I you could make it look like labels. However, I don't think you can add explanatory text.

Maybe work on the default topic. Create a table with text in the cells or add images with nothing more than text in them.
